I totally agree! There's some higher average guys who bowl where I bowl and they do great the first 2 games or so, but when the 3rd game comes around they keep trying to throw it straight on a broken down house shot. This is a 5 person team so 10 people for 2 lanes. I have been watching the balls rolling and you can visibly see the ball lose rotation and then start hitting flat and yet they keep throwing in the same spot. I tried to say something yesterday to one of the guys but he didn't really want to listen...lol And their scores showed it. I may not be a really good bowler yet myself, but at least I can read the transition pretty good though.crazyjim wrote:Ball reviews are so subjective and bowlers styles very so much that I rarely use them, I try to stick to how the manufacturer rates their equipment. Typically a THS condition will make any ball look good plus the ball thrower needs to be able to read what the ball is doing accurately and from what I've seen there are plenty of high avg bowlers that cannot do this.
For the ball reviews, I also really like to read the reviews that have most of the specs listed along with a good review. It gives us fellow bowlers a better idea of what to expect if we were to drill that particular ball up.
